overcome by greater ones? If the footmen
are too much for us, won't the odds be more
fearful against US when we contend with
horses? 1thank God that some of His dear
children have been delivered. How was it
that Paul could say: "Sorrowful, yet always
rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; hav-
ing nothing, yet possessing all things" And
David, the psalmist, scars up into the rock OF
Gods strength and becomes thoroughly com
posed amid all his SORROWS, saying: "God Is
our refuge and strength, very present help
in the time of trouble; therefore will not we
fear though the earth be removed, though the
mountains be cast into the midst of the sea,
though the waters thereof roar and be trou-
bled, though the mountain shake with the
swelling thereof. Selah."
But my text suggests something in advance
OF anything I have said. We must all quit
this life. However sound our health may be-,
it must break down; however good our title
NAV be to houses, land and estates, we must
surrender them. We will hear a voice bid
ding us away from all these places. We will
have to start on pilgrimage from which we
can never come back. We will have seen for
the last time the evening star. aud watched
the spring wind for the last time. Hands Of
loved ones may be stretched out to hold us
back, but they cannot-go we must. About
all other exits and chances we may trihe, but
not about this. Stupendous moment OF life.

eternity arise about us, and fill the soul
and surround it, and sweep it out toward
rapture or woe, ah, that will be the swelling of

merrily about the departure from this life. !
am sorry to hear it. But men do make fun OF
the passage from one world to another. Byron

scoffed at the idea of fearing a future world,
but lying upon his pillow in the last hour his
teeth have Chartered with terror. I saw, in
Westminster Abbey, an epitaph which poet

r .forn,er,

A stranger in America would be led
to believe from what some of these pol
itical outcasts assert, that there were no
honest men in either party. We ask
our readers to give the matter one un.
prejudiced thought. Have the "refoim'
leaders OF your acquaintance any better
record for intelligence, fer honesty, OF
for morality than many Of the members
Of either OF the old parties? Is it not a
fact that there are just as good, intelli.
gent men in the two parties as can be
found out Of them? These "reforms'
have not been started because there were
No more honorable men in the two par.
ties to elect to Office. The great trouble
is, the two parties do not have officers
enough to 60 around, hence the neces.
sity Of n'.r'; parties. If our "reform'
leaders lii This vicinity would give more
attention to putting an honest man in
office than getting himself iu, he would
begin to show genuine symptoms Of
reform. A performer" should have
some record for honesty and commor
respectability.-Boomerang.

of the North Pacific have said that they
will extend their Palouse branch to
Lewiston if they have encouragement,
from the people and route can be found
with fair grade to get down from the
table lands can be pointed out to them
The prospect now is that sixty.fve miles
of that branch will be completed in the
direction Of Lewiston from Belmont with.
in the ensuing four months, which viii
reach Genesee passing through Palous,
City, Pullman and Uniontown. Thi.
will pass through much of the bes
country between this place and Spokan,
Falls. The Northern Pacific manager
are now convinced that they made
mistake in selecting the Pen d'Oriell,
route instead of the Clearwater route fo
local business, of which they were ad
vised before they moved a shovel full o
earth on the line between Ainsworth t,
Pen d'Orielle lake, and were it possibl,
to change their line to the Clearwater
route they would do so readily.
